Covering everything in the world of esports, video games, and the culture of both. I’m not an expert or a guru; but I am on a journey to learn everything I can about the fast growing industry from people that are living and breathing it. And hopefully through this journey the show can act as a guide to help you learn as well. Expect growth. Expect change. Expect real conversation. This is an experiment and passion project after all. Welcome to the madness!
